From a Macbook Pro you can play native Apple music files up to 24/96 via airplay 2 to a Phantom I or II.
On other Mac computers or IOS devices you are limited to 24/48 unless your external DAC supports higher sample rates, which is the case of the Phantom's DAC.
You have to enable "ALAC up to 24/192" in the audio quality preference menu for wifi streaming in Apple Music to stream sample rates higher  than 24/48. A music file available at 24/96 will be sent to  your phantom DAC, which downsamples it to 24/48 before converting it to analog. 
However, I have noticed that if you choose "ALAC up to 24/192" in the wifi audio preference menu of Apple Music, a good 24/96 file will sound better than if you select "ALAC up to 24/48",  even though the Phantom DAC is supposed to downsample it to 24/48 before playing it.
